NEUROMORPHIC NETWORK

Disclosed herein is a neuromorphic percolating network (100). The network comprises a substrate (102) having at least two electrical contacts (104A, 104B); a plurality of nanoparticles (106, 108, 100)distributed on the substrate (102), at least some of the nanoparticles positioned between at least two of the at least two electrical contacts, the surface coverage of the nanoparticles within a tolerance of a percolation threshold; and at least one memristive element (116) located at least partially in a gap between nanoparticles, or groups of nanoparticles, that are not otherwise directly connected to each other, the memristive element(s) at least partially providing at least one persistent pathway (118,120) of increased activity. Disclosed herein are methods for fabricating a neuromorphicpercolating network or component thereof, and neuromorphic percolating networks formed by such methods. 本文公开了种神经形态渗透网络(100)。该网络包括：衬底(102)，所述衬底具有至少两个电触点(104A、104B)；多个纳米颗粒(106、108、110)，所述多个纳米颗粒分布在衬底(102)上，所述纳米颗粒中的至少些定位在至少两个电触点中的
